Happened bu chance to see some of Gardener's World on Friday (generally
avoid on account of unctuous presenters - btw that Aberdonian chap on
Beechgrove Garden is a refreshing change!).
Saw some pink and white tulips in pots and a few in the ground. They
were stunning. Anyone know them (name? supplier?)? Googled around but no
joy so far.
Thanks - Chris
Thanks for the info/advice Sacha!
It's not Sorbet I'm afraid but could well be Tulipa clusiana 'Lady
Jane'. I say could well cause in my head the striping was more defined.
This'd do though. It's a cracker!

Monty Don has replied to my query and you're absolutely correct,
they're Lady Jane. Beautiful.
